The Little Cheater is on fire.  Check for a buzzer.

Dusty's team drives another stake through the heart of Bob Short and of Short's team.

just saw an incredible stat: Every Astros starter is under the age of 30.

It is absolutely incredible how this team has continuously retooled and stayed at the top of the AL.

Verlander is 40. Altuve is 33. Jose Abreu is 36. Bregman is 30
Next month.

Verlander started game one. I guess he is under 30 at heart.

Valez is under 30 for like 30 more days. But, the Astros do have a solid core. Javier, Brown, Garcia, and Urquidy will all be under 30 next season.

Its really Javier that stands out. They found him when he was throwing mid 80s and turned him into a good starting pitcher

I just hate giving them any credit. Valdez is a real wild card. Talented but up and down emotionally.  I think Javier is cheating in some way but have not figured it out. 

Go Rangers!

The average age for Houston’s four starters this series is 31. Phillies is 29. So take that.

It would explain why his fastball gets so much spin

Somewhere in Arlington Texas there's a 70 year-old man who has just thrown his beer bottle through his TV and cussing Bob Short for bringing the team to Texas in the first place.

Don’t forget Bregman’s old man was one of Short’s lawyers.

The Nats need to steal Howie away from the Phillies and make him a bench coach or whatever he wants.
